Are None spanking punishments more cruel to children?

No child wants to be spanked, but then noone wants to be punished at all. Many children are not against spanking children, some children are against spanking. This poll is for children but adults can vote too if they can put themself in the childs position. In every case the alternative punishment is a hard over the knee bare bottom spanking. Note that I said 'CRUEL' none spanking punishment.' No punishment in this poll is in anyway abusive.
